To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, Dnwrs LA zen of the United States ol An NDAU, a citiierioa, and a resident of the city of San Francisco, State of Californiahaveinvented certain new and useful Improvements in Promoting- Guards for Siphons, &c., ofwhmh the following 1s aspeciiication.

This invention relates to improvements in protecting guards for siphons rece taclejs while being lled.

T e urpose of the invention a guar which can be readily .ma

and otherliquid is to provide ynipulated to insert and remove a siphon or other receptacle any the specification Referring to the drawings which aocomto ald the description,

igure 1 is a plan view of the filling aparatus to which the guard is attached.

is a side elevation showing the guard in position and containing a Siphon vl'lncii` is being iilled. Fig. 3 is a v guard open to receive a siphon.

is made in two parts A, B, (Fig.

consists of half of a vertical cyli A mesh or other suitable material horizontal section of the Said guard 3). Part A nder or" wire securel'l on a cpivoted the bottom c ofthe said of said guard, which said constructed solid but mesh. When the parts are in other art B part B isgpre erably may also be of Wire the open posi tion of Fi 3 a si hon l). or other vessel to be filled can be readily inserted,

lire said siphon may be of any suitable kind, and is shown in the drawings as one filling siphon bottles, in which in the bottle is opened by the connecting the inlet of said si of my' self a iilling valve operation of phon bottle with the nozzle it of the filling device; g bein r the nozzle of the Siphon .bottle Then the part B is revolved, closing the open side 'of part A so that the vessel iscompletely `inclosed by the Wire mesh, which prevents injury to the attendant should the vessel eX- piode while being'iilled. The mesh permits the attendant to observe the rise of liquid in the vessel and to control the filling accordingly.

The holder is preferably used in connection with the filling apparatus set forth inv my application, SerialNunilieiSQOl, filed Au gust 31st, 1907, but is not restricted thereto.

Now having described my improvements I claim as my invention.

The combination in devices for protecting liquid receptacles during filling, of a bracket c adapted to support said receptacle in relation to the filling device, a base b for said receptacle carried by saidbracket c, a semicylindrical shield A on said base adapted to partly inclose the receptacle, a bottom plate e pivoted on said base Z5 so to be rotatable on said base, and `a semi-eylindrical shieldB mounted on said bottom c so as to rotate therewith and in one position to inclose and protect that part of the receptacle notinclosed by said shield A, and' in other position to expose part of said receptacle and permit same to be removed .from said stantialiy 'as describe-1l.'
